O abandono afetivo inverso: hipóteses de responsabilidade civil dos filhos

Abstract

The present study aims to address a significant social issue: Reverse Affective Abandonment, which affects family relationships. The main focus is the abandonment of elderly individuals, who are cruelly left unsupported by their families. Affective Abandonment goes beyond financial issues, as it involves love, social and moral support, or the absence of these elements. It is observed that many children neglect the care of their parents in old age. It is crucial to discuss the civil responsibility of children toward their elderly parents, a matter of extreme relevance that, despite its presence in everyday life, is often undervalued by society and the Judiciary. This neglect reflects the lack of commitment from children to care for their parents, highlighting the need to restore affection and love in family relationships. Thus, the present analysis will be conducted in accordance with the principles of Family Law, with emphasis on the principles of Human Dignity, Solidarity, and Affection. This work is divided into four chapters, which will address the search for support for the dignity of the elderly, the principles concerning the guarantees of rights, aspects of civil responsibility, and, finally, elements of civil accountability with the possibility of disinheritance
